The Central Committee of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) today resolved that the present Parliament should be dissolved on April 23 and the General Elections should be held thereafter as pledged during the January’s Presidential Election.

The party said that the election should be held according to the system promised under the 100- days programme without postponing it citing ‘false’ explanations.

We will support either UNP or UPFA but no and never to JVP. They are the people who ruined our country indeed.

Please take 3-6 months and implement the mixed system with a ceiling (FPP with PR for gap filling) per district or provincial basis. No harm for any party. 125 seats for the first-pass-the-post, 75 seats for the proportional allocation and 25 for the national list. A ceiling (upper limit) should be set before the proportional allocation of 75 seats. Upper limit is the number of seats according the total votes for each party in the district or the province. e. g. who gets 60% votes in the Galle district is entitled for 6 seats out of total 10. If they have already taken 5 seats from the first-pass-the-post allocation, they will get only the gap of 1 more seats. This will secure a small party who gets 10% to have 1 seat.
